0:00.0 | So you beautiful bastards. Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco show. This is your Wednesday evening, Thursday morning dive into the news. |
0:07.0 | We honestly just have so much to talk about. So I'm going to hit you with that monkey and just jump into it. |
0:11.6 | This is a news show. |
0:16.4 | So P. Diddy is back in the news today, which of course is bad news for Diddy, but also the specifics here are wild. |
0:23.5 | Because right now there's a grand jury in New York hearing from his victims as well as there now being a massive investigation by the Rolling Stone that alleges that he actually has a much longer history of abuse than the recent claims would suggest. |
0:34.1 | Now, to start with the grand jury out of New York, there's not a ton to say there yet. But we do know that they're hearing from people who have sued Diddy for abuse, although |
0:40.2 | we don't know if they're hearing from all eight people who have brought lawsuits against him. |
0:43.9 | But one thing that it definitely shows is that the government is ramping up its pressure on |
0:47.3 | Diddy. You know, because a grand jury, it's one of the first hurdles they need to clear before they can bring formal charges against him. Although really, it's not much of a bar. There's an old legal saying that you can convince a grand jury to bring charges against anything |

1:48.2 | But not before Diddy was allegedly a real creep by massaging her shoulders and saying things like, |
